Bumble bee parasite strains vary in resistance to phytochemicals [PDF]
Nectar and pollen contain diverse phytochemicals that can reduce disease in pollinators. However, prior studies showed variable effects of nectar chemicals on infection, which could reflect variable phytochemical resistance among parasite strains. Inter-

Plants are at the trophic base of terrestrial ecosystems, and the diversity of plant species in an ecosystem is a principle determinant of community structure. This may arise from diverse functional traits among species. In fact, genetic diversity within

Plant-microbe associations are thought to be beneficial for plant growth and resistance against biotic or abiotic stresses, but for natural ecosystems, the ecological analysis of microbiome function remains in its infancy.

Insect oral secretions suppress wound-induced responses in Arabidopsis [PDF]
The induction of plant defences and their subsequent suppression by insects is thought to be an important factor in the evolutionary arms race between plants and herbivores.

Chromosome-level genome assemblies of Nicotiana attenuata and Nicotiana obtusifolia
Nicotiana attenuata and Nicotiana obtusifolia are two wild tobacco species from the Solanaceae plant family, which are rich in producing diverse specialized metabolites and have been established as ecological model systems for studying plant-insect interactions.

The composition and timing of flower odour emission by wild Petunia axillaris coincide with the antennal perception and nocturnal activity of the pollinator Manduca sexta [PDF]
In the genus Petunia, distinct pollination syndromes may have evolved in association with bee-visitation (P. integrifolia spp.) or hawk moth-visitation (P. axillaris spp).
